While searching the very wide Internet for similar blogs, I found many good ones. Some of those blogs are totally concerned with kid education while some have a variety of topics including marriage life and cross-cultural issues. In the following list I introduce five different blogs that, I think, are older sisters of this blog:
1. American Muslim Mom:

Chicago Muslim Parent is a personal blog that offers "parenting tips, ideas, resources, reviews and more from a Muslim perspective". It discusses important issues related to Muslim children and parents from the author's point of view. The author also shares some selected books and links with her audience.
I really like all of these blogs. I will keep visiting them regularly and I may use them as references for some of my future entries.
Now, it is your turn my audience. Do you like them all? What blog do you like best and Why?
Dear Cookie Baker! I am so happy to be introduced to these different blogs concerned with parenting, and especially with parenting from a Muslim perspective (or in the case of one blog parenting in different cultures). Probably my favorite blog is the one you posted last. Why? Because it seems so real and authentic with less professionalism than the others. That being said the others are awesome for the information that they provide.
ReplyDeleteDid you place them in any particular order? Why did you present the blogs in the order that you did? Just curious!
Oh! I have another question! Did you find any Muslim fathers blogging about parenting? Or only women?
Hi Hallelujah Truth!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that non-professionalism sometimes makes things better!
With respect to the order, I tried to place them according to their activity and relevance.
Unfortunately (and fortunately :) ) I couldn't find any Muslim father blog. So, my blog may open up this door for others.
Thanks Hallelujah Truth for your interest!
